European countries are among the most popular health tourism destinations worldwide. Currently, the European health market is undergoing intense processes of transformation and the identification of new trends for this type of tourism in conditions of great competition. Their research is essential in order to draw attention to balneo resorts and to support Bulgarian health (medical) tourism. Bulgaria has significant potential to develop health tourism with an emphasis on balneology (Medical SPA and Wellness SPA). The results of the systematic review in the scientific databases PubMed, Scopus, Medline, etc., indicate that among the European countries with the largest number of balneo resorts and developed rehabilitation tourism are Italy (180), Germany (131) and Spain (106). These countries also have the largest number of patients who used the services of spa and wellness resorts. There are 47 balneological resorts in Bulgaria with over 225 mineral springs of different composition and temperature. The healing properties of the waters have a scientifically proven effect in the treatment of a wide range of diseases. Currently, the prices of the medical services offered in our country are extremely attractive, and our country has the potential to receive patients from other countries. The climate, mineral springs, nature and cultural attractions allow combining rest and prevention with treatment and rehabilitation of a number of socially significant diseases. Promoting health SPA treatments as preventive medicine and enhancing specific rehabilitation training programs are the future perspective of developing health tourism in Bulgaria.
